TREE MULCH - BAG

(0 review)

Tree Mulch is produced from tree lopping and tree pruning, supplied in a 50L bag. It is a natural, recycled garden mulch and, because it comes straight from tree work, it is a non-uniform product that can vary in appearance, texture, and colour from load to load. What stays consistent are the benefits it brings to the garden: it helps suppress weed growth by blocking light to the soil, retains soil moisture by reducing evaporation, and regulates soil temperature fluctuations to optimise plant growth. As it breaks down it increases soil organic matter over time and enhances overall soil health. It is a cost-effective choice for covering garden beds and larger areas where a natural, rustic look is welcome. Because it is a variable by-product, this mulch may not be suitable for all gardens, so check with your store before ordering. Mulch is generally laid 50 to 100mm thick. Available in bags or by the cubic metre for pickup or delivery across Melbourne and Geelong.

Tree Mulch bags FAQs

Here are some common questions about our bagged Tree Mulch.

Tree Mulch is produced from tree lopping and pruning, it's a genuine by-product of tree work rather than a specially graded product.

Because it comes from tree lopping and pruning rather than a controlled grading process, Tree Mulch is non-uniform by nature and will vary from load to load in colour, texture, and particle size. This is expected and not a quality issue.

Mulch is generally laid 50-100mm thick for garden beds.

Yes, Tree mulch is the cheapest mulch Daisy's, a perfect option for those who want to mulch their garden on a budget.  However, Tree Mulch bags is the same price as all other mulch bags excluding Watersaver Mulch Bags.

We recommend tree mulch to be topped up every 1-2 years so your garden receives the full benefit that tree mulch has to offer. 

There are approximately 25 bags in a cubic meter.

  • Regulates Soil Temperature: Moderates soil temperature fluctuations to optimise plant growth.
  • Increases Soil Organic Matter: Boosts organic matter content in your soil over time.

Product Disclaimer

Please note: While we aim for consistency, slight variations from online images may occur due to the natural and recycled materials used. For the most accurate product representation, we recommend visiting one of our stores before placing a large order.


  1. Prepare the area: Clear existing weeds and debris. Lay a weed mat first for maximum suppression.
  2. Apply at the right depth: Spread to 50–100 mm. Too thin and weeds can break through; too thick restricts water penetration.
  3. Keep clear of plant stems: Leave a 50 mm gap between mulch and plant stems or tree trunks to prevent moisture buildup.
  4. Water it in. Give the area a good drink after mulching to settle the layer and start pushing moisture down to the roots.


  • Natural Variation: Tree Mulch will vary from load to load and over time, as it's a direct by-product of tree lopping and pruning rather than a graded, uniform mulch.
  • Keeping it Looking Fresh: A light rake or turn each season lifts the surface layer and brings the richer underlying colour back to the top.
  • Topping Up: As with any organic mulch, a top-up as it breaks down keeps beds looking full; exact appearance after topping up may differ slightly from the original load.
  • Even Coverage: Topping up thin or patchy spots as needed helps keep the bed looking consistent and full.


  • Wear gloves when handling the mulch.
  • Avoid contact with eyes and skin, and prevent inhalation of dust and vapours.
  • Store away from open flames.
  • Keep dry before and after installation.
